Ashley Judd meets with DSCC

Yet more proof that Ashley Judd is seriously considering entering the race and making politics a whole lot more interesting, not to mention, at long last, enticing to young people:

Actress Ashley Judd privately met with officials at the Democratic
Senatorial Campaign Committee in Washington earlier this week, as she
continues to weigh whether to mount a Senate run against Kentucky Sen.
Mitch McConnell, according to two sources familiar with the session.

The meeting indicates that the Hollywood movie star and
eighth-generation Kentuckian is still seriously weighing a political
foray after spending the past several years as an outspoken
environmental and liberal activist. But sources said it remains
uncertain whether Judd wants to leave acting to take on the Senate
minority leader, who is the Democrats’ top target in 2014 when he runs
for a sixth term.
